      I can reproduce it when making a completely new certificate with the nsupdate method. Renewing existing entries is OK.

      Doesn't seem to be related to wildcard entries as I tried one with and one without wildcard, both failed.

      https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/12912

      I'll have a fix in shortly, in the meantime, edit the cert entry and check the debug option. That should allow it to work for now.

        Thanks jimp

        To workaround this issue:

        I imported the CAs Acmecert: O=Let's Encrypt, CN=R3, C=US and Acmecert: O=Internet Security Research Group, CN=ISRG Root X1, C=US from a backup.

        Then, deleted the certificate (key_only), and imported the cert again, X.509 (PEM), including certificate data and private key data.

        The new certificate generated is working properly now.

        dead on arrival, nowhere to be found.

            0.7_3 doesn't include the fix, it will be in 0.7_4.

            You can check the debug option on a cert to work around it until that is available (which will be shortly, it's building now).

            The debug option was the problem, it's a recent feature and seems to have some unintended side effects. I've removed it for now.

              @jimp thank you.
              It just took me a while to copy/paste logs and edit pictures and did not see your reply.

              thanks for your support - take your time.

                        2. how can I run pkg version 0.7_4 ?

                          make sure you update your package in the package manager. Current version I show as 7.1_1

                          Which is newer then the .7_4 version...

                            Running indeed on version 7.1_1.

                            I' ve got also a certificate error during creation, the logging tells me that

                            "You haven't specified the DirectAdmin Login data, URL and whether you want check the DirectAdmin SSL cert. Please try again."

                            In the array showed above this message the correct login data and URL information is displayed.

                            Any idea?

                              Have no idea what that is - its not listed a supported ddns service that I see.

                                It should, you can select DNS-DirectAdmin and is working on older certificates but not on a new one.

                                  @robert-de-wit DOH!!! I was looking in ddns services ;) hehehe

                                  I don't use who ever that is, so there is no way for me to test that. Working fine here with clouldflare.
